From Hussein Saddique, CNN, / August 9, 2011 - Updated 0045 GMT (0845 HKT). 

(CNN) -- Former New York police officer Kenneth Moreno was sentenced Monday to one year in prison for three counts of official misconduct in a case of alleged rape involving himself and another New York police officer.

A jury acquitted Moreno and former partner Franklin Mata of felony rape and burglary in May, but found them guilty of official misconduct, a misdemeanor. Moreno and Mata were on duty at the time of the alleged incident.

Moreno and Mata were accused of returning to the apartment of a 27-year-old woman whom they had helped earlier in the evening and raping her in December 2008.

The case set off a public storm, and the men were later fired from the New York Police Department. On Monday a group of female protesters gathered in front of the courthouse holding signs that read, "NYPD: Protect women," and, "Take rape seriously."

Moreno and Mata admitted they broke police guidelines by hiding from their superiors the fact that they went back to the woman's apartment. Moreno admitted to making a fake 911 emergency call so that police dispatchers would send the officers back to the woman's apartment, according to Judge Gregory Carro at New York County Supreme Court.

Senior IPS officer and former Tamil Nadu Intelligence chief M.S. Jaffer Sait - Agencies.

Senior IPS officer and former Tamil Nadu Intelligence chief M.S. Jaffer Sait was today suspended by the government, a week after he and some others came under a vigilance probe in connection with a land allotment scam, sources said.

Sait, considered to have wielded significant clout as ADGP (Intelligence) in the previous DMK regime, was shunted out of the high-profile assignment and posted as Special Officer at Mandapam Refugees Camp after the AIADMK Government took over.

He was one of the persons who had come under the scanner of Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-Corruption (DVAC) on July 26 when the agency sleuths raided the premises of Sait and some others in connection with the Tamil Nadu Housing Board (TNHB) scam that has surfaced during the previous DMK regime.

  The ninth-standard students of the co-ed Beldih Church School were asked to do sit-ups by a lady teacher for causing a din during a teachers' meeting, they said.
  Six of the girls fainted soon afterwards and had to be rushed to the nearby Tata Main Hospital by the school management and some of the parents.
  The ailing girls were indentified as Amrita Kumari, Rukshar Hashmi, Sazia Hassan, Simran Arora and two othes.

Five prison officials here were suspended on Thursday a day after deputy chief medical officer Y.S. Sachan, arrested for his two seniors' killing, was found dead inside a Lucknow jail, police said.

"The five officials have been suspended for negligence in duty," said a government spokesperson.

They are jailor J.P. Srivastava, deputy jailor Sunil Kumar Singh, head warden Babu Ram Dubey, and wardens Anil Kumar and Ram Naresh.

Y.S. Sachan, the prime accused in chief medical officer (CMO) family welfare B.P Singh's murder, was found dead in mysterious circumstances inside the Lucknow district jail toilet Wednesday evening.

The state government has ordered a judicial inquiry into the death of Sachan, who was found strapped by a belt to the toilet's grill.
